Forestry and gardening machinery - Vibration test code for portable hand-held machines with internal combustion engine - Vibration at the handles (ISO 22867:2021)
This document specifies a vibration test code for determining, efficiently and under standardized
conditions, the magnitude of vibration at the handles of portable hand-held, internal-combustionengine-powered forest and garden machinery, including chain-saws, brush-cutters, grass-trimmers,
edgers, pole-mounted powered pruners, hedge-trimmers and garden-blowers.
Although the magnitudes measured are obtained in an artificial operation, they nevertheless give an
indication of the values to be found in a real work situation.
Vibration test codes, as described in this document, enable the manufacturer to verify the effort
regarding low vibration design.

Introduction
This document is a type-C standard as stated in ISO 12100:2010.
This document is of relevance, in particular, for the following stakeholder groups representing the
market players with regard to machinery safety:
— machine manufacturers (small, medium and large enterprises);
— health and safety bodies (regulators, accident prevention organisations, market surveillance, etc.)
Others can be affected by the level of machinery safety achieved with the means of the document by the
above-mentioned stakeholder groups:
— machine users/employers (small, medium and large enterprises);
— machine users/employees (e.g. trade unions, organizations for people with special needs);
— service providers, e. g. for maintenance (small, medium and large enterprises);
— consumers (in case of machinery intended for use by consumers).
The above-mentioned stakeholder groups have been given the possibility to participate at the drafting
process of this document. The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous
situations or hazardous events are covered are indicated in the Scope of this document.
When requirements of this type-C standard are different from those which are stated in type-A or -B
standards, the requirements of this type-C standard take precedence over the requirements of the
other standards for machines that have been designed and built according to the requirements of this
type-C standard.
The vibration test code specified in this document is based on ISO 20643:2008, which gives general
specifications for the measurement of the vibration emission of hand-held machinery. It differs from
ISO 20643:2008 in the number of operators required to be involved in the test, with ISO 20643:2008
requiring at least three operators and this document only one. Another difference is that this document
primarily positions the transducers next to the hand in the area between the thumb and the index
finger, where they present the least disturbance to the operator gripping the machine.
The determination of vibration characteristics is primarily used for
— manufacturer's declarations,
— comparing data between machines in the machine family concerned,
— development work at the design stage, and
— the estimation of the vibration risk considering the specific conditions (parameters).
The use of this vibration test code ensures reproducibility of the determination of the vibration
characteristics. Measurements made during particular operating modes are of interest for assessment
of the vibration exposure, for example, over a typical working day.
The work cycles chosen for this test code are based on the following considerations of application:
3
a) chain-saws with an engine displacement of < 80 cm are used for various operations, including
felling, bucking and delimbing;
3
b) chain-saws with an engine displacement of ≥ 80 cm are normally used for felling and bucking.
Delimbing causes the saw to run at racing speed; therefore, racing is included only for saws with an
3
engine displacement < 80 cm .

ISO 22867:2021(E)
For brush-cutters, grass-trimmers, hedge-trimmers and pole-mounted powered pruners, the cutting
mode (full load) is estimated to be valid only for short periods, and racing and idling are the two
dominant modes. Moreover, the cutting mode has also been found to be diverse and not able to be
performed under repeatable conditions.
For grass-trimmers, the full-load and racing modes are integrated into a single mode, owing to the
loading effect of the flexible line.
For brush-cutters, hedge-trimmers, edgers and pole-mounted powered pruners, it is not possible to
simulate the full-load mode in a feasible way, since there are no constant load conditions comparable
to those of chain-saws. Since the operating mode “racing” is the worst case, it is taken as being
representative.
For garden-blowers, full load and idling are the two dominant modes.
In either of these cases, transport and other tasks between operations cause the machine to run at
idling. Experience has led to the conclusion that equal duration for the different working modes is a
good estimation of daily exposure. The values obtained are values intended to be representative of
the average of typical vibration magnitudes in real-world use of the machines. However, the actual
magnitudes varies considerably from time to time and depends on many factors, including operator,
task and cutting attachment. The state of maintenance of the machine itself might also be of importance.

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or

Introduction
This document is a type-C standard as stated in ISO 12100.
This document is of relevance, in particular, for the following stakeholder groups representing the
market players with regard to machinery safety:
— machine manufacturers (small, medium and large enterprises);
— health and safety bodies (regulators, accident prevention organisations, market surveillance etc.)
Others can be affected by the level of machinery safety achieved with the means of the document by the
above-mentioned stakeholder groups:
— machine users/employers (small, medium and large enterprises);
— machine users/employees (e.g. trade unions, organizations for people with special needs);
— service providers, e. g. for maintenance (small, medium and large enterprises);
— consumers (in case of machinery intended for use by consumers).
The above-mentioned stakeholder groups have been given the possibility to participate at the drafting
process of this document. The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous
situations or hazardous events are covered are indicated in the Scope of this document.
When requirements of this type-C standard are different from those which are stated in type-A or -B
standards, the requirements of this type-C standard take precedence over the requirements of the
other standards for machines that have been designed and built according to the requirements of this
type-C standard.
The vibration test code specified in this International Standard is based on ISO 20643, which gives
general specifications for the measurement of the vibration emission of hand-held machinery. It
differs from ISO 20643 in the number of operators required to be involved in the test, with ISO 20643
requiring at least three operators and this International Standard only one. Another difference is that
this International Standard primarily positions the transducers next to the hand in the area between
the thumb and the index finger, where they present the least disturbance to the operator gripping the
machine.
The determination of vibration characteristics is primarily used for
— manufacturer's declarations,
— comparing data between machines in the machine family concerned,
— development work at the design stage, and
— the estimation of the vibration risk considering the specific conditions (parameters).
The use of this vibration test code will ensure reproducibility of the determination of the vibration
characteristics. Measurements made during particular operating modes are of interest for assessment
of the vibration exposure, for example, over a typical working day.
The work cycles chosen for this test code are based on the following considerations of application:
3
a) chain-saws with an engine displacement of < 80 cm are used for various operations, including
felling, bucking and delimbing;
3
b) chain-saws with an engine displacement of ≥ 80 cm are normally used for felling and bucking.
Delimbing will cause the saw to run at racing speed; therefore, racing is included only for saws with a
3
< 80 cm engine.

ISO/DIS 22867:2020(E)
For brush-cutters, grass-trimmers, hedge-trimmers and pole-mounted powered pruners, the cutting
mode (full load) is estimated to be valid only for short periods, and racing and idling are the two
dominant modes. Moreover, the cutting mode has also been found to be diverse and not able to be
performed under repeatable conditions.
For trimmers, the full-load and racing modes are integrated into a single mode, owing to the loading
effect of the flexible line.
For brush-cutters, hedge-trimmers, edgers and pole-mounted powered pruners, it is not possible to
simulate the full-load mode in a feasible way, since there are no constant load conditions comparable
to those of chain-saws. Since the operating mode “racing” is the worst case, it is taken as being
representative.
For garden-blowers, full load and idling are the two dominant modes.
In either of these cases, transport and other tasks between operations will cause the machine to run
at idling. Experience has led to the conclusion that equal duration for the different working modes is
a good estimation of daily exposure. The values obtained are values intended to be representative of
the average of typical vibration magnitudes in real-world use of the machines. However, the actual
magnitudes will vary considerably from time to time and will depend on many factors, including
operator, task and cutting attachment. The state of maintenance of the machine itself might also be of
importance.

Forestry and gardening machinery — Vibration test
code for portable hand-held machines with internal
combustion engine — Vibration at the handles
CAUTION — Some of the test procedures specified in this document involve processes which
could lead to a hazardous situation. Any person performing tests in accordance with this
document shall be appropriately trained in the type of work to be carried out. All national
regulatory conditions and health and safety requirements shall be followed
1 Scope
This document specifies a vibration test code for determining, efficiently and under standardized
conditions, the magnitude of vibration at the handles of portable hand-held, internal-combustion-
engine-powered forest and garden machinery, including chain-saws, brush-cutters, grass-trimmers,
edgers, pole-mounted powered pruners, hedge-trimmers and garden-blowers.
Although the magnitudes measured are obtained in an artificial operation, they nevertheless give an
indication of the values to be found in a real work situation.
Vibration test codes as described in this document enable the manufacturer to verify the effort
regarding low vibration design.

5 Instrumentation
5.1 General
The vibration measurement system shall be in accordance with ISO 8041.
5.2 Accelerometer
The total mass of the vibration accelerometer giving the acceleration in the three directions at each
measuring position shall be as low as possible, and shall not in any case exceed 25 g, including the
mounting but excluding the cable. For further information, see ISO 5349-2:2001, 6.1.5.
NOTE The accelerometer is a sensitive element intended to pick up the vibration and to convert it into
electrical signals. A tri-axial accelerometer will permit simultaneous measurements in the x, y and z axes.
5.3 Fastening of accelerometer
The accelerometer shall be mounted firmly on the handle by means of a fastening device, in accordance
with ISO 5349-2.
For measurement on handles with resilient covers (e.g. cushioned handle), mount the accelerometer in
accordance with ISO 5349-2:2001, 6.1.4.2, and perform one or the other of the following actions:
— remove the resilient material from the area beneath the transducers;
— fix the transducers using a force which fully compresses the resilient material.
Mountings shall be in accordance with ISO 5349-2:2001, D.2.2 and D.2.3; the method given in
ISO 5349-2:2001, D.2.4, shall not be used.
5.4 Calibration
The accelerometer shall be calibrated in accordance with ISO 16063.
The whole measuring chain, including the accelerometer, shall be checked before and after a sequence
of measurements using a calibrator which produces known accelerations at a known frequency. These
in-situ checks shall be carried out in accordance with ISO 8041.
5.5 Speed indicator
The rotational frequency of the engine shall be measured with an accuracy of ±1,0 % of the reading.
The speed indicator and its engagement with the machine shall not affect the operation of the machine
under test.

6 Measurement direction and location
Measurements shall be made at each hand-grip at which the operator normally holds the machine.
Measurements shall be made simultaneously in the three directions x, y and z.
The centre of gravity of the accelerometer shall be positioned at a maximum distance of 20 mm from
the handle contour. One of the axes of the accelerometer shall be parallel to the axis of the handle.
The position of the accelerometer shall be as near as possible to the hand without obstructing normal grip.
NOTE The specific conditions for each type of machine are given in Annexes A to E.
7 Test and operating conditions of machine
Measurements shall be carried out on a new machine, featuring standard equipment as provided by the
manufacturer, and with the fuel and oil tank(s) at least half-filled.
The engine shall be run-in prior to the test according to the manufacturer's recommendations. The
engine shall be at a stable normal operating temperature before the test is commenced.
The carburettor shall be set, where applicable, according to the instructions of the manufacturer.
The engine speed for all test modes shall be kept constant to within ±3,5 r/s during testing. No alteration
to the initial settings is permitted once measurements have commenced. If adjustment becomes
necessary, the test shall be restarted after the adjustment.
The measured vibration of the machine is influenced by the operator. The operator shall therefore be
skilled and able to operate the machine properly. The machine shall be held in a manner consistent with
day-long use of the machine. Hand-held machines, except those suspended by harness, shall be held so
that there is no contact with the operator's body during measurements.
A test to obtain the required data for a given operating mode shall consist of a minimum of four
measurements, with a short break and a significant change of engine speed (to idling or racing speed,
as applicable) between measurements. Stable speed conditions (constant to within ±3,5 r/s) shall be
obtained before testing is continued.
At least four separate periods of vibration data shall be obtained, totalling at least 20 s.
Each signal duration used shall be at least 2 s, during which the engine speed shall be maintained within
±3,5 r/s.
The measurements shall be continued until the validity requirements given in Clause 8 are fulfilled.
The collection of data for the different operating modes need not be carried out in any particular
sequence.
NOTE The specific conditions for each type of machine are given in Annexes A to E.
8 Measurement and calculation
